Abstract

MALHEIRO GUTIERREZ, Xosé Manuel. SCHOOL LIBRARIES IN THE FIRST DECADE OF THE FRANCO REGIME: BETWEEN DAWN AND THE BLIND LIGHT. Hist. Educ. [online]. 2017, vol.21, n.53, pp.239-266. ISSN 2236-3459 .  https://doi.org/10.1590/2236-3459/66494.

During the Civil War and the first years of the dictatorship of General Franco, the regime that emerged from the coup d'état swept away any Republican trace from the Spanish society, especially in the pedagogical field. This text restores the expurgated version from the popular library donated by the Board of Pedagogical Missions in 1935 to the national school of a small town in the province of Pontevedra. The file documentation that is kept in the school's file, composed of the teacher's correspondence and the official writings, is revised and completed with the necessary bibliography and press of that time period. This allows us to document the filtering process that took place in the public libraries, such as the perpetrated in the entire Nation by the participants of the coup d'état; to observe some features of the orientation of the role that teachers were forced to execute, from that moment on, in a violent scenario of social rupture, political persecution and ideological substitution.

Keywords : the IInd Republic; Franco's regime; pedagogic missions; popular libraries.
